That is, consumers cannot check if the products they take consume/purchase contains it or not. They can only see the description “Vegetable oil” on the package instead of “Palm oil”. On the other hand, in some countries such as America, Australia, and Canada, food companies have to show on the packaging a the name of the specific name of oil that they is used for their in the products on the packages.
In conclusion, the immediate political abolition of its use might be impossible for some economical reasons so far. Therefore, raising consumer awareness about palm oil might assist in reducing be able to reduce the consumption of palm oil and contribute to the protection of nature, human rights, and health.
Thank you for your listening.

Firstly I’d like to give ask you a question! (Showing a picture) Here are a cup noodle, a chocolate bar/piece of/block of chocolate, and packet of potato chips. They have something in common. What is it?
The answer is the oil they contain is the same. That is, “Palm oil”
Today I’d like to talk about “Palm oil”, which is commonly used in almost all convenience food in Japan such as cup noodles, chocolates, potato chips, ice cream, curry paste and so on. Palm oil is a type of edible vegetable oil, which is extracted from palm trees, and is originally grown in from Western Africa. This common oil, however, destroys is destructive to the global environment, human rights and human health.
One of the most significant issues concerning the that Palm oil industry brings is the environmental destruction. As it is cheap and easy to process, the use of palm oil in the international market has expanded. Consequently, the dramatic expansion of its There has been a dramatic expansion of plantations spread into Southeast Asian countries such as Malaysia and Indonesia, and tons of forests were have been burned into clear areas. Species like orangutans, rhinos, elephants and tigers have been affected. Also, deforestation releases high levels of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, contributing to climate change.
Another issue is the violation of human rights violation. Land has been taken from Indigenous peoples* there have been taken their own places to so that the industry can expand its plantations. Although the palm oil industry provides job opportunities for local people, some earn barely enough income to survive and support their family. It is also reported that young children have been working in dangerous conditions.
In terms of health, there are several reports that supports both sides of the argument, but it is said that palm oil could cause serious health problems such as cancer and diabetes.* 'Peoples' is plural if there are several different groups, such as different tribes or ethnic groups. One group or village you would refer to 'people'

I assume it refers to 'secrets of nature', as it's referring to natural sciences such as Physics. The implication is people who study these sciences are arrogant and feel they know more about the world, because they understand so much about it at a fundamental level.0 votedJanuary 24, 20180
